An AI-powered interview and candidate screening platform built for high-volume recruitment. Automates campus hiring workflows through structured realtime voice interviews with Gemini Live, intelligent resume parsing, multi-agent evaluation scoring, and explainable rubric assessments.
Siddhartha Kushwaha
Problem Solver • Building on-device AI & high-scale distributed systems
About
I am an AI & Data Science Pre-final Year student at Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Pune (CGPA: 8.6). I focus on engineering reliable, low-latency software solutions where modern AI models meet distributed backend infrastructure.
My engineering work specializes in on-device local AI solutions (quantized SLMs with Ollama and Hugging Face), RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines with vector search, and high-throughput event streaming systems using Apache Kafka and Redis.
I am deeply committed to problem solving with 400+ DSA problems solved across platforms, a 7× Hackathon Finalist, and the winner of Techathon 3.0 for developing an offline AI tutor. Outside of competitive programming, I serve as the Cloud Coordinator at MLSC VIT Pune, leading hands-on cloud and developer workshops.

Projects (4)
An on-device offline AI tutor designed specifically for educational equity in remote environments without dependable internet connectivity. Powered by Gemma 3 & Qwen 3 via local quantized model inference, delivering real-time multimodal tutoring, interactive quizzes, and personalized concept reinforcement.
High-performance Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform capable of answering complex user inquiries across dense, multi-hundred-page PDF documentation. Implements FAISS similarity search, chunk optimization, and LLaMA 3.1 with a FastAPI backend containerized with Docker.
Event-driven transaction processing system designed to handle continuous streams of concurrent banking and payment ledger events. Utilizes Apache Kafka for durable distributed message queuing and Redis for in-memory caching and state verification.
